title: Database catalog
text: A database catalog of a database instance consists of metadata in which definitions of database objects such as base tables, views, synonyms, value ranges, indexes, users, and user groups are stored. The SQL standard specifies a uniform means to access the catalog, called the INFORMATION_SCHEMA, but not all databases follow this, even if they implement other aspects of the SQL standard. For an example of database-specific metadata access methods, see Oracle metadata.
